Just read that Three is discontinuing it's WiFi calling app as most phones have this as standard now. I have no reception in my flat so this has been a lifesaver. I have figured out how to activate the volte and WiFi calling toggles but only the volte seems to work (I get an icon when on 4g). Has anyone been able to get this to work on any UK network?

Any LOS/Based ROM should work.
Thanks. I had a look on the other thread and couldn't see WiFi calling as an option despite being able to toggle it on. Can't remember what code I used.

If it doesn't show as 'Provisioned' under the *#*#4636#*#* menu, it's not available. You're using OOS, right? I'm not sure there's any method to force the issue. Maybe a Magisk module?
Or start using Custom ROMs?

I'm using OOS Oreo. I'm trying to remember what I did to get the toggles under sim preferences. Before then I didn't even have the toggles
Is this operator dependent or phone software. No idea how to add a module but should be able to figure that out.

Adding the Toggles to Settings is the easy bit. It doesn't mean a thing as far as getting the functions working though. The ROM, and specifically the telephony parts of it, need to have all the necessary code added. We know that 3 can add the bits needed on phones where they have control over the software updates. Otherwise it's down to the Manufacturer/ROM.
You never know, OOS Pie might have this working natively. You could ask in the Community Beta thread to see if anyone there has any idea. Or wait a while longer until OOS Pie is in Stable channel. (I assume you don't want to try the Community Beta?)

I'm not surprised. I doubt it's high on their list of priorities. Especially as a lot of this stuff is carrier specific. They probably expect the carriers themselves to add the necessary modifications before the units get into the hands of customers, which is what happens most of the time. Except, Oneplus phones are usually bought off contract as nobody here offers them with contracts.

The provision toggle shows up now when I am back in the UK. Might try to install lineage to see if it helps.
Did you end up getting this to work on lineage? I'm having the same problem and the three in touch app has just stopped working for me.

Haven't gotten around rooting and installing it. I have volte in most of the flat so the phone kinds works at home.
Fair enough, thanks for the reply. If I end up getting it working I'll report back
Tried to figure out how to instal lineage on my phone but I got stranded after installing ADB on my laptop. My problem is that most of the guides assumes that you know what you are doing in minute detail and therefore leave out quite a lot of steps. It also seems like you will lose all your data which means you need to back it up and to back it up you need to root the device which whips the data... Installing twrp seems also to wipe your data which is a bummer as you need that to do the backup of your phone.
As you can see I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't
Tried today to install lineage and I cannot say I'm impressed with the various guides I found. The lineage os wiki page omitted various steps such as which entry you needed to edit in the environment variables. There are several to choose from. Nor did it not mention that you need to enable unlocking the bootloader. Had to Google that to figure out how to get around that error
Installing twrp didn't work as it didn't recognise the file. Tried three different workarounds that didn't work. (File extension, dropping the twrp image onto the command window after typing the fastboot flash recovery line and moving the image to the desktop and the ADB folder.
Why do the people who write these guides assume you have extensive knowledge of installing ROMs instead of including all necessary steps. Needless to say, I failed to install lineage.
Rant over.

the Network to 2G when you get home. I am having trouble getting phone calls at home with WIFI on and LTE enabled. There is some kind of issue with some phones that seems to send phone calls directly to voicemail when you have bot WIFI and LTE enabled at the same time. I have never used Tasker, would that be possible to set up this way? Do you guys know of any app that will do that automatically. Thanks in advance for help or feedback.

It looks like learning tasker would be my best bet to do what I need. I have been reading up and watching some videos on tasker and it is an amazing tool. A lot to learn but for the simple tasks that I want it sholuld not be to hard to setup. Thanks for the reply
Tasker won't switch your lte on and off with the stock Rom, but it will control WiFi and Bluetooth, and you will be able to set up a location based profile to do it automatically.

Okay, I have been looking over Tasker, it does so much it quickly intimitades new users like me lol. Thanks that answers my question and I appreciate your post.
I had the same problem with Tasker. Even with some of the tutorials, they steps they used must have been for an older version as they didn't even match what I was seeing on the screen.
If you want to try a much simpler interface try out Locale. Its the same concept, but the interface is a LOT easier to understand for newcomers. I have mine set using location to turn on WiFi/off BT/set ringers to 10% volume/check into FourSquare when I get to work, turn on BT/off WiFi/Open Google Listen & GasBuddy when I get in the car and such. Most of the plug-ins you can use with Tasker can also be used with Locale too.
However, I suspect what you are wanting to do would require a plug-in as it is a sort of advanced procedure but maybe if you find some app that will allow turning off 4G, you could at least have it open the app or toggle to turn it on and off as you leave home - if you can't have it happen automatically.

My understanding is that Google, since Jelly Bean, has pulled the API's for turning off radios and GPS (just as they have with battery stats in 4.4) in the interest of more secure devices. So without root, and in some cases something other than the stock rom, programmatical access to these settings is no longer possible.

Okay, that may be part of my trouble no root yet. This is the first phone I have not rooted since coming to android. I probably should have gotten the Dev Moto but I was stubborn and wanted to pick my design:silly:
Tasker should be able to do some of what you need, but as others have mentioned you will at the very least need root to get it working.

On the stock Moto X (XT-1053) you can turn GPS on/off via Tasker without root or using Secure Settings. It was a delight to see this, and not get the GPS nag screens I've previously gotten on a SGS3 (Verizon). Would have to play around, but you might be able to execute an activity or shortcut in Tasker that brings up the settings screen where you can choose 2G data and then script a screen tap in just the right place. Essentially automating the actions you'd take doing it manually. Not as pretty as a direct setting, but Tasker can execute this kind of thing very fast so it's of little bother to see it flash by on your screen.

OK - Just made a task which turns on GPS waits several seconds and turns it off. Verified it was actually on/off when it said it was on. I'm running 4.2.2. My son "upgraded" to 4.4 on his Moto X, and Tasker GPS manipulation doesn't work on his. I didn't root, and verified as much with root checker, so it seems this is an "upgraded" feature in 4.4.
I'd consider rooting, but do like some of the Moto rom features so don't really want to move to an alternate rom & not wild about losing warranty. Maybe a little off topic, but if you root 4.2.2 and latter upgrade to some 4.4.x release, will you end up losing root?

Interesting... My recollection is this was disabled under JB on my Nexus 4. I didn't have 4.2.2 on my Moto X long enough to test.
Can you toggle airplane mode using tasker?
Off topic for here but a quick question. Would this be a good root quide to use. It seems pretty straightforward to understand and do. http://theunlockr.com/2013/12/11/root-motorola-moto-x-running-android-4-4-kitkat/ That site has been around and I think it is reputable but wanted to check.
Dunno, but I am not sure you're gonna be able to toggle LTE even if rooted. At least the description of Secure Settings suggests you can't without a custom rom.
If you turn off mobile data, does that solve your incoming call issue?
Question for you ROM developers/builders: What binaries are you using when you build AOSP for this device? On my builds, I can't seem to get Mobile Data working. I'm using the latest build for TMO, as I am on TMO. I verified the APN settings are correct and tried four different radios (M1, M2, 17R, 14R), but nothing seems to allow mobile data.
I also can't seem to get videos to display in apps like Facebook/Instagram, etc. I tried with both AOSP Web View and Google Web View, but neither worked.

Ah, right - yeah it seems to be the same version as me and same region. The only difference is our model (you are on single SIM variant and I am on Dual)
The only thing I could suggest at the moment - is using the firmware for another region (using firmware finder and HuRUpdater). For you it would be best to try C432 8.1.0.128 as it's the European firmware and region.
For this, of course you will need to have an unlocked bootloader and custom recovery.

Cheers - thought same, but trying to avoid anything on the riskier side of the spectrum in the hope that some of the newer releases make their way to EE phones.
I've also got issues with WiFi Prioritizer simply not working at all - do you happen to use that? (I run a couple of SSIDs at home and need to switch between).

Yeah, it's frustrating that UK providers are so lackluster about pushing firmware updates. I'm with Three. If you do need help changing firmware to .128 European - then I'd be happy to help if you add me on Telegram @Shaolin36 (I've softbricked this phone around 3 times now and rescued it by various means lol) but I have work at 4pm UK time and wont be back until late tonight.
I haven't really been in a situation that allows me to test that mate, so I couldn't say. What I used to do a few years back was configure all of my routers under the same SSID so the extra routers effectively were just strength boosters - but that might not be appropriate for your intended use.

Cheers for the offer, really appreciate that. I've not flashed a phone in yonks. Moved to the dark side for a while as got so pissed off with Android ecosystem inconsistencies. Say what you want about Apple, but at least you know what you're gonna get.
I think I'm going to sit it out for a couple of weeks and see if EE get their finger out, then I'll consider flashing. It's not tragic but occasionally I think - why isn't that working? Then have to trawl through settings to find that EMUI has disabled something. Probably least of my worries, my sort code and account number and PIN have likely already been wired to Shenzen.
As for WiFi. SSID switching is piss poor on most devices unless you have a mesh system that incorporates proper hand-off. I have an additional SSID from my repeater upstairs so it can reach my garage, but I don't want to be joining that unless I'm actually in the garage, hence a standalone SSID. Using WiFi prioritizer should mean I can specify the hand-off parameters to meet my requirements, but whilst it runs, and has the right permissions set in EMUI/Android, it never actually switches SSID.
It's these little niggles that sometimes make me regret Android they really do.

At least glad it's not just me. I also use Lastpass and it's one of the worst impacted by it.
Go to : Settings (app) > Battery > App Launch
Make sure LastPass isn't automatically handled because that could be your issue - give it a try and let me know if it works. Battery management on an app-by-app basis can cause issues with apps that require certain accessibility.

There's plenty around online and on YouTube - if you're not rooted then you'll need to use the ADB method and output it to a text file. Logcats when running output thousands of lines of code - so it's best to run the logcat just before the issue is likely to happen and stop it as soon as you notice the setting was turned off - and then use the 'find' feature to look for keywords like 'lastpass' in the .txt file outputted by ADB logcat.

WiFi comes on and then turns off by itself?
[CLOSED] fixed -
re-installed "9", everything working again.
I've had this too. Sometimes wif-fi just refuses to re-enable after the TP goes to sleep. The toggle moves and then just slides back. The only way to re-enable is to reboot. I'll give a re-install a go when the next version is released as it is not a major problem for me. Just thought I'd mention it as it is not an isolated incident.

I have not experience that "yet".
Make sure the WiFi connection is " Treat as unmetered" ( this is Android feature ) not ROM
Besides that, any settings or extra Apps that the user install could make WiFi work differently.
Also Android 9 must use a swap partition and the settings from the Guide.
I've not actually in stalled much as I still prefer to use webOS!! Hate me if you like but Android & iOS are now bringing in their own versions of gestures and 'cards' that webOS had nearly 10 years ago. On this basis I still have the Swap file so all is good there.
I'll check the Android settings later to make sure, however for the device to be working fine, put down (in the 6 year old wireless charger) and left for a couple of hours and then you cannot enable wifi does not sound like an issue with the basic Android settings. Either this in an install problem, a ROM problem or a hardware problem. As there just 2 of us with this and _dave reinstalled and it seems to be good for him I'll presume it is an install problem for now and just live with it until I get bored - or an updated ROM is released.

I do agree with you on the WebOS interface and we clearly see now how the others mobile OS have implemented the WebOS gestures and other things.
On this basis I still have the Swap file so all is good there.
WebOS was the first and truly a mobile operating system designed for a Tablet and the swap partition is part of that.

I have been running youtube playing music since 8 am this morning and now is 3pm data usage for that tablet is over 2 GB and I have the Super variant install of Open Gapps, the maximum that can be flash. WiFi does not drop as is all working. I turn WiFi on and off, it reconnects. When dealing with WiFi there are two devices involved and two settings, router and tablet. I had issues with disconnects and it was due to my manual settings that I had on the router and there was interference. I mostly set up all settings to auto, selected channel 11 that does not have much interference "where I am" and all went away.
Either this in an install problem, a ROM problem or a hardware problem. As there just 2 of us with this and _dave reinstalled and it seems to be good for him I'll presume it is an install problem for now and just live with it until I get bored - or an updated ROM is released.

When describing an issue, it must be very specific.
1. WiFi does not reconnect to the same wireless network ( does not see it) WiFi icon is outline but not filled.
2. WiFi is completely off, does not see any network ( WiFi icon is not visible ) OFF
What is the graphical status of the WiFi icon next to the battery icon ( outline or filled )?
OK. As I just posted to show that _dave was not alone, I think (for me) this is getting out of hand. Whilst I do appreciate your time and knowledge, it is simply (again for me) not a significant problem.
However. If I use the TP it is not a problem so streaming music would be in the realms of using. The issue I have is that after using it I place it inthe dock and when I pick it up again hours later I sometimes find wifi is not enabled. I got to settings and toggle the 'slider' to ON and a second later the 'slider' moves back to the OFF position. I simply cannot make the 'slider' stay in the ON position. If I restart the TP everything is fine and dandy again.
So for me a quick reboot is sufficient to keep me using this ROM. I know I can roll back to an earlier ROM or even try Pie again like _dave did. As we seem to be the only two users that have voiced a problem here and he has fixed his I cannot ask you to look into this further - unless there are other users that are also affected.

WiFi connection "feature"?
HP_TOUCHPAD said:
I have not experience that "yet".
Make sure the WiFi connection is " Treat as unmetered" ( this is Android feature ) not ROM
Besides that, any settings or extra Apps that the user install could make WiFi work differently.
Also Android 9 must use a swap partition and the settings from the Guide.

Where would I find the "Android feature" for the WiFi connection? Other then the ROM I don't know how to get to this feature.

Settings --->> Network & Internet --->>WiFi ( connected WiFi is the first one ) to the right (the blue icon)
The last down (Advanced).
Also WiFi will take time to connect again after the Tablet comes out of standby (sleep)
What kernel speed did you flashed from the Guide?

Thanks, got it
For some reason I did not installed any kernel speed-up, should I and can I just add it now (already setup)? I'm thinking of using the 1728000 version or should I go higher?
Thanks for all your support.:good:

It is a must and that is why the guide was created and those files fixes issues with the non working Bluetooth and the performance of the ROM, is not only to speed-up. It clearly state to flash in the specific order.
1. ROM
2. Kernel Boots optimize settings
3. Open gapps (Pico recommend)
Thanks for all your support.:good:

If you are not familiar or know the maximum CPU frequency your tablet can handle flash the 1728 if you experience reboots then try lower. If want to get better performance then try 1782 and 1836 if the tablet can handle it.
But always follows the instructions exactly as posted it, that is how the ROM was tested and guarantee to work.
You are welcome!

I started over again and flash the ROM then the 172 and pico app, didn't have a reboot problem but I lost WiFi again (keeps going off, even after rebooting). So, I dropped down to 1674 and everything working again. I'll stay with 1674 for now, at least until the next ROM update.
Again, thanks for your help.:good:

Yeah, tried LuneOS (it's many iterations) and although it is moving in the right direction it is still not as polished as webOS was when it died (has it ever actually died?). I still use apps from the old app store but Android is just easier as it is up to date and works. If webOS development was restarted and brought fully up to date with a decent stocked store it would (and should have) been a great success. Oh well :crying:
I thought about a LG TV but can't justify the cost whilst my Sammy TV is working

Also check your router settings if there are interference on the channels and is set to automatically change channels the Tablet may have issues updating to the new channel.
So, I dropped down to 1674 and everything working again. I'll stay with 1674 for now, at least until the next ROM update.
A higher frequency that the tablet can not handle will make it reboot or freeze, using the closer highest frequency for the Tablet will make it work better.

LuneOS is work in progress, but at least the built it browser works well. WebOS is alive on the LG TVS
I still use apps from the old app store but Android is just easier as it is up to date and works.
The most important on any OS is the Apps available that add functionality.

Developers support and willing to develop App for the platform is the key to a successful OS.

I think that the only thing that is need it is a Theme pack to cosmetically make Android 9 look like WebOS. The gestures are the same.
LOL you're forgetting QT web browser and QupZilla on the TP now
I have the theme and Fling settings on an old Experia but that didn't feel right (there was a tutorial a while back in Pivot). Palm had the interface/UX just about perfect but it was never loved by the public and HP didn't really give a sh*t.

To me Pie is very similar to WebOS, even the charging sound is very similar to the finished boot sound in WebOS.
All is changing and we must adapt to it, to be able to keep the Tablet updated and useful.
Android Q is already in Beta, who knows if it will boot in the HP TP and the developers will take the challenge.
Hi HP_TOUCHPAD, once again I cannot get my TP to see my WiFi (rest of my devices - no problem). And once again the "advance" section does not show up in "Network & Internet" section. So how do I get the "advance" section to show up again.

@_dave sorry for the delay. Staring with Oreo 8.1 if any changes are done to the router the WiFi connection will be lost and the Tablet will not see the WiFi signal that was connected to and a reboot is required. If the router was changed then, select forget network and connect again. The same issue is present in Pie 9.
This is an update of this module, which hasn't been updated since Magisk v10. Additionally, I've disabled connection to the dun APN, making it appear as normal data. I'm intending to add TTL fixing in my next update.
Hi,
Okay, so I downloaded it and went into Magisk 19.3 >> Modules >> + >> Browse
I went to it, tapped on the Zip and it just showed me what was in the Zip. It didn't grab it to install it like it normally does.
Am I doing something wrong?
Thx

Make sure that you click the ZIP and click the button that says "Select" that should be at the top. That's my experience with Q on a Pixel 2 at least, but it's worth trying.

Thank you for your response. Once I tap the file, it immediately shows me what's in it, like if you were using a Zip tool and selected "Open" instead of "Extract". I know I'm not supposed to extract it. I'm just relating an example of what I see happen.
I used (I believe it's called "Documents" for some weird reason) Android's built in file selector, like when you're granting access to your Ext SD. That one.
Thx

Hi,
Okay, I got it installed. Long-Tap, then tap "Open".
But I didn't even bother to ask how to use it. It doesn't install an app, which is how I'm used to, um, "make it look otherwise".
Is it found in my phones' Settings?
Am I safe in assuming it'll work with my;
LG V20 (H910A) -- Android Nougat 7.0
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can follow instructions, no problem.
Thx!

FYI,
Aftering installing the Module, in my phone's…
SETTINGS >> TETHERING
… it is now as follows;
USB Tethering = Grayed Out
Mobile HotSpot = Off (can be enabled)
BlueTooth Tethering (can be enabled)
Thx

So it did finally install? If so, it should be working. USB Tethering works when you have your phone connected to a PC with a USB cable.

Yes, I did get it installed (see previous message), thank you.
Also, just FYI, I do understand about BT & USB. But I never use those for Tethering. What I'm used to doing (with an app) is to run the app and then it uses the phone's WiFi, but makes it like a Router and broadcasts out an SSID and others see that and using the Password that I set in the app, others can connect to my phone to use the Internet.
Would that still be considered "Tethering"? Or would that fall under "Mobile HotSpot"?
If the latter, then I assume that I would just go into my phone's Settings and Enable it?
If that's the case, did I read correctly that your Module makes it look like Mobile Data to the Carrier instead of Tethering/HotSpot?
Thx!
Posted from my way cool LG V20 (H910) Nougat 7.0
Tethering and Mobile Hotspot are essentially the same, and yes, you should be able to use the one in Settings for that. And yes, it should hide it from the carrier unless they are doing checks on the TTL, which is what I'm working on next.
Hi,
Okay, so theoretically, I just go into my Settings and Enable "Mobile HotSpot" and my phone will become a connection for others to connect to via their WiFi?
Assuming yes, but how would they know what SSID to look for and what Password to use?
I.e., all I see is a switch to turn "Mobile HotSpot" on. I don't see anywhere to set those things up and I certainly don't want to be wide open for anyone to connect.
Thank you for all your help! It really is very much appreciated! And just FYI, I have understood everything you've said so far.
Thx!

If you click on Mobile Hotspot (not just the toggle) it should take you to a menu where you can configure the SSID and password.

Way Cool, dude!
I'll try it tonight when my wife gets home, or in the morning and let you know how it goes.
Is there any way to confirm it's being seen as Mobile Data by my Carrier?
Let me explain that it's not that my Carrier doesn't allow Tethering. They just limit it to a small amount and then you have to pay for "X" amount (plans).
So as you can tell, I obviously don't want the Tethering I do to be seen as Tethering.
Thx
Posted from my way cool LG V20 (H910) Nougat 7.0
I'm not going to personally confirm whether it'll be seen as mobile data or tethering, as some carriers do nasty tricks such as checking the TTL of packets to see whether or not it's tethered, but for most carriers, it should work fine.

Okay, thanks. And you said your next update deals with that, right?
Posted from my way cool LG V20 (H910) Nougat 7.0
It should, though I'm not sure how long that'll take. It requires a kernel module as far as I can tell, and there are solutions for some devices out there already. However, this is very dependent on the kernel installed, and Android doesn't have a system like DKMS. So I'm looking for a solution to that.

I'm able to tether with this, but I have no internet access. I also noticed that if I USB tether I get no internet access. Would this be an example of the carrier doing tricks to prevent it? FWIW I'm running a moto G6 on consumer cellular (which makes use of at&t's network).
I have installed this lastest module, I can bypass carrier lock and device can connect but no Internet. If I look at the device I am hotspotting from it shows 0 devices connect. I am running a rooted Pixel XL with 9.0 pixel dust rom and Magisk 19.3

what is your current phone's kernel that run the module successfully? would it works on LOS kernel?
and does your internet phone works normally while another device use the tethering from it, too?

That's not the carrier doing anything weird. That's just your phone being weird afaict.

EX Kernel includes the patches for it, and if there's enough interest, I can upload a build that enables it on EX Kernel only for the moment. And yes, my phone's internet works fine while another device is tethering. Your phone is essentially acting as a router when tethering.

Ah, thanks for offering. But I'm not on mood to change any crucial things nowadays, such kernel .

No, it won't "just work" on the LOS kernel. Tell them to include the module "xt_HL.ko" for all devices (the kernel module for the iptables mangle table) and it will. Until they do or I find a generic way to get it working, EX is the only kernel I can reasonably support.
